Cruz is such a grandstander it's impossible that anyone except his nutcase base can take him seriously. For a guy as reputedly sharp as he is, it's remarkable how doctrinaire he is. He's preaching to a very small choir.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bc1472eab8ea1e15e57a52hjs3Tue, 08 Jul 2014 11:55:30 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bc1472eab8ea1e15e57a52
Oh good another "Voter-faud" whine form the GOP....AS for investigations, I'm pretty sure Daryl Issa's dance card is pretty much full for the rest of the election year foolishness......http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bc0c01eab8ea9174e57a53fredlledTue, 08 Jul 2014 11:19:29 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bc0c01eab8ea9174e57a53
From the headline, thought Ted was going all environmental and was looking into pollution going into the Gulf.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bc01796da811fe4e0082c1joe.rivera.376695Tue, 08 Jul 2014 10:34:33 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bc01796da811fe4e0082c1
The allegations of criminal voter buying and illegal use of money by the Cochran campaign should also on the list to investigate.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbfa85eab8ea152be57a57Send in the TroopsTue, 08 Jul 2014 10:04:53 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbfa85eab8ea152be57a57
Any troops.
Or the RCMPhttp://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbf592eab8ea961be57a54mudsharkTue, 08 Jul 2014 09:43:46 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbf592eab8ea961be57a54
Quite a few is meaningless. Try finding 6500 or 7600 or whatever the margin was.
Then ask why Mississippi makes it so easy to screw up a simple election.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbf33a69bedd1c2e5147b7VanlinezTue, 08 Jul 2014 09:33:46 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbf33a69bedd1c2e5147b7
So what's appalling Mr. Cruz? The fact that black people in Mississippi have the right to vote? Or the fact that the black people in Mississippi don't have to vote the way you want them to? Go back to Canada if they'll take you.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbe4ffeab8ea3154e57a57Business as usualTue, 08 Jul 2014 08:33:03 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbe4ffeab8ea3154e57a57

Actually, it is illegal to vote in both party primaries. And, it looks like quite a few people did.
You would be in the willfully ignorant crowd.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbe24b6bb3f72b31fba6a1Doug in VirginiaTue, 08 Jul 2014 08:21:31 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbe24b6bb3f72b31fba6a1
Cruz is smart enough to stay out of the blast radius on this one. He's just saying he wants to investigate voting irregularities, and isn't endorsing McDaniel at all.
Meanwhile, McDaniel is trying to claim (for example) that 200 Democrats from a precinct voted illegally by voting in different sides of the primary and runoff...when only 37 Democrats from that precinct voted at all in the first election.
"Indeed, some of McDaniel's claims do appear questionable. For example, at one polling location, the Fondren Presbyterian Church, the McDaniel campaign claimed it found about 200 "irregularities." However, only 37 people voted there in the Democratic primary, meaning the maximum possible number of illegal votes would be 37. "

I don't have anyway to know if there was voter fraud. However, if a party chooses to hold "open primaries," then it certainly isn't fraudulent to appeal to any registered voters in order to win elections.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbdcc5eab8eab533e57a56NobodyTue, 08 Jul 2014 07:57:57 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbdcc5eab8eab533e57a56
Let's get the truth. Did about 6500 members of the naacp vote in the demrat primary and then vote illegaly in the Repube primary and thus affect the outcome?
